[QUOTE="Kotik, post: 1198506, member: 89825"] Hello [USER=82144]@mm1352000[/USER] Thanx for the reply, i am currently trying to see if i can work the issue out with TBS, on a driver level. They instructed me in testing DVBDream and indeed there everything is working, i am still trying to see if they are willing to review their driver's LockOn mechanism. Somehow i dont feel that anything positive will come up from their side. They claim that their tuners just follow DiseqC instructions and if it works in one program but not in another then i have to resolve the issue with the program itself. I dont blame them, after all DVBDream seems to be the only software that actually respects motor movement and applies a dynamic delay before sending tuning details. Meanwhile i started working on a solution of my own. I researched and find out board schematics for my DiseqC motor, i already got myself a small 12V relay switch that i am planning into adding to the board. This relay will control the LNB circuit, if the motor is not moving the circuit will be in a CLOSED state and as so allow the LNB to be powered on but if the motor starts moving then the relay will instantly open the circuit and as a result power off completelly the LNB, once movement is over the relay will return into a closed state and the LNB will be powerd up once again. Detecting motor movement is simple enough since the motor itself has a board controlling its West/East movement with 2 relays. All i have to do is connect my relay to the board and detect movement instructions from the chip to the motor's two relays. Essentially what i will achieve is an automated Power On/Off LNB dependant on motor movement. This will, as u can understand, prevent the tuner from locking anywhere while the motor is moving. As a backup plan i started looking at TVE3.0 source code from master branch, but i dont seem to be able to find anywhere the 250ms hardcoded delay regarding tuning details. Would u please point me out to the right direction as i would like to increase the delay to 3000ms and see how it will pan out.
